    Day-to-day wear and tear from exuberant pets and busy family life takes a toll on your floors. Gradually, homeowners might start to notice scratch marks appearing on their beautiful hardwood flooring. In reality, it is hard to prevent accidents from happening. But you can prepare for these issues by opting for durable and scratch resistant flooring. So what type of flooring should homeowners in the Dallas-Fort Worth area be considering?

    Types of Scratch Resistant Flooring

    A typical home might feature multiple styles of flooring depending on the purpose of each room. In your decision, you will need to weigh the durability of the flooring against the overall function of the room. Here are the main types of scratch resistant flooring to consider.

    Tile Flooring

    Tile flooring is a popular floor choice for kitchens and bathrooms. Ceramic tiles are highly durable and able to protect against scratches and scuff marks. Additionally, a water resistant coating has a glaze preventing water damage, ensuring your tiles retain their quality with minimal upkeep. But while tiles are incredibly scratch-proof, they won’t bring the same warmth and comfort offered by other flooring choices.

    Laminate Flooring

    The look and feel of laminate flooring has improved over recent years. You can now get high-quality laminate floors that resemble expensive hardwood flooring. Along with the affordable price, one of the main attractions of laminate is the durability of the surface. Minimal maintenance is required to keep its sheen, and if it does suffer any scratch marks, it’s easy to switch out or replace a tile.

    Carpet

    Carpet is a popular choice for rooms requiring comfort and warmth. In particular, bedrooms and rooms used by small children can benefit from this soft and insulated flooring option. But while you won’t suffer any scratches on your carpet, carpet can pick up dirt, dust and stains from accidental spills. Stain-resistant options are available, but you might need professional cleaning services to maintain it in top condition.

    Hardwood Flooring

    When homeowners think about scratched flooring, the product that most comes to mind here is going to be hardwood. But various hardwood choices are high-quality, durable and indeed hard enough to stand up to most scratches. Pay attention to the quality of the wood, and you can find a product that stands the test of time. If you appreciate the beauty and finish of a hardwood floor, you also have the option of occasional maintenance. For an affordable cost, expert technicians can sand and refinish your hardwood flooring until it looks as good as new.
